Details

(Whiteboard: [fidedi-ope])

There are a number of things that we register to point to parts of the installation directory. Since post-Bug 1891600 that the installation directory will effectively change after every update, we need to redo these registrations after every update. Known examples of this sort of registration include these: notificationserver.dll and mozwer.dll. Likely, we will want to fix these by adding these registrations to PostUpdate, but this means that we may need to address Bug 1767057 first.

Unlike most of the other parts of the Versioned Update Directories project, this should be safe to ship immediately and probably doesn't need to be gated behind the build flag (Bug 1891616).
